Creating new form Your last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

Hi All, a little confused.....

Normally i create a new form against an entity, take into the pages folder of that entity in the portal so i can see it and customise it in Visual Web Developer and then take it back into Application Architect.

I now want to create a new form that has no link or bindings to any entity its just completely stand alone. How do you go about creating this form and getting it to display on click of a hyperlink on the welcome page for example. (or from any source that does not involve it having to be a tabcontrol or dialogworkspace of an entity).

Hi,

Create your aspx page, put into the support files (root of SupportFIles) in the VFS so it deploys with your website, at the same level as all the base aspx pages (Account.aspx etc.). Then just point your hyperlink at it, which will be your SLXClient url with your page name at the end, e.g.

http://webserver:port/SlxClient/MYPAGE.aspx

You would need to open a new window (Target of the hyperlink to be = "_blank") I would have thought to go to your page, depending on what it does. If you wanted it hosted inside a DialogWorkspace like the Activity screen then that is bit more work.

Or of course another way is to have a dialogworkspace, stick an iFrame in it and point it to your page....

Thanks,
Nick
